• 1:15 to 2:00 – Sean Wallbridge, Leading an open Q&A SharePoint Discussion

For the last session (Q&A), this is based on recent feedback that many folks want to just “talk SharePoint”. The idea is an opportunity to ask questions of the other folks in the room. It is a collaborative session and will occupy whatever remaining time is left after the other presentations / lunch.
